Help! Tropical flakes seem to be the only thing they can get in their mouths. What else can I feed them? I've tried freeze dried bloodworms and tiny baby pellets, but they can't seem to get a bite from those.

They may like mashed-up peas. Maybe try smashing/cutting the bloodworms? As for more protein, I don't really know, since I rotate three meals for my tropicals: flakes, bloodworms, and veggie (peas or broccoli).

My guppies eat flakes, bloodworms and brine shrimp. The shrimp is really small.

You could try some fry foods like brine shrimp, egg yolk things like that. Since the fish are tiny i would try those when they are bigger move them to other foods like the hikari tropical foods small sinking pellets. Even the little bits on broccoli are good i have fed fry them before. Not guppies but still little fish none the less but they were fry. Another good thing to try is too grate some veggies like carrot etc.
